I wish I had my camera here!! I covered his 6 after his divorce with a 5 year old daughter, he did 3 Tours Air Borne Rangers on there Elite Special Teams, basically, like Seals but do not get the press gives them and in the movies.
He is a sleep on the couch, feet and legs wound over his shoulders, I just wish I was so limber.!!!!!
He told me a story, Air Borne training, A break, Sunday breakfast, shit on a shingle which he loved, sitting crossed leg/Indian style, no feet on the floor, and a smile on his face. The training Instructor came by and gave him
shit, he said SIR I love S on S and I am relaxing my tired ass legs from double timing all week and carrying a 90lb jump gear pack! Training instructor said carry on and enjoy your Chip beef on toast, and be up front on Monday am!!

Him and talked, he said I dont know how many I may have killed, and I dont want to know, but he was special weapons and EMT, just counted my fellow team mates we saved, and still remember the one I could not.

We would be remiss if we didn't mention that before the SFOB was established at NhaTrang, Vietnam the Saigon Electric Works was already busy cayying on the tradition established in 1952.

In Vietnam they indeed swam JPG but no concerns about mixing water and electricity because the water was afraid of them.
